I have been bouncing around in the library for the starting javascript lesson, but all of the beginner lessons are picking up from from another lesson it seems. What program should i be using for these lessons, and which lesson should i start on?

21,699 PointsFor all purposes, its free, because the evaluation period is unlimited. But you are right, buying it is probably a good thing to do, as it will stop prompting to buy, and support a great text editor.

10,241 PointsAgreed. It's a bit expensive (70$) considering more complex IDE's are totally free (IntelliJ IDEA CE, Eclipse, Visual Studio Express) but it's a good text editor for dynamic languages such as Ruby, PHP and Python. It's fine also for HTML and Javascript though. ;)
